Here you go, The rims are 16" The rears can go lower about another inch, and the fronts can pretty much make the car bottom out. I've been meaning to take a picture of the car slammed just cause, but I think I got the ride height perfect and I'm too lazy.

Ya you can. Pretty much any coilover will let you tuck tire.

Two fingers gap still, if you need extremely low like show room condition, I think you need to get adjustable coilover bro

tein flex, or any triple perch coilover for that matter is best for slamming.

no matter how much you lower.. you dont compress the shock into shock body anymore.. which means the same stress on shock @ oem height or slammed.

u can lower beyond where you want to go.. def BEYOND slammed. i have mine slammed.. frame 1.5" off ground and i still have room to lower more..

if you feel you dont have enough lowering u can remove 2 perches and lower 1/2" more

on my civic i removed 2 perches on front to slam more w/ same ride quality
